About Carolyn

Carolyn Faucette is an Ohio licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, trauma and parenting concerns. Carolyn also supports those coping with life changes and issues that affect self-esteem and anger.

Her approach centers on Emotionally-Focused Therapy combined with practical methods from CBT and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She uses straightforward conversation to help people name painful emotions and notice how those feelings affect their choices and relationships. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small, usable steps to change patterns.

Carolyn helps people sort through family conflict, blended family stress, and caregiving strain. She also addresses attachment issues, codependency, commitment questions, and communication problems. Other areas she sees include bipolar disorder, grief, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and impulse control concerns.

Clients can expect a client-centered style that aims to clarify goals and build skills over time. Carolyn draws on attachment-based ideas to look at long-standing patterns and on ACT to identify values that guide behavior. The result is practical work that connects feelings, behavior, and what matters most.

She conducts sessions in English and practices in Ohio. If someone is ready to begin, the usual first step is completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial appointment.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and changing distressing emotional patterns in relationships and personal life. It helps people name hard-to-see feelings and shift how they respond to those feelings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, while clarifying values to guide action. ACT is often used for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and current relational patterns to understand how people seek closeness and react to loss or conflict; it can be useful for family strain and caregiving stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or combine methods that fit the client's goals, needs, and preferences. This is an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time decision.

Session format details are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that remote sessions help them maintain consistency with fewer disruptions, while still using the same EFT, ACT, and attachment-based techniques to address emotions and relationship patterns.
